Hi everyone, I have not been to this forum before and just saw it tonight. I am getting my lap-band removed on March 4th because of erosion. At the same time the plastic surgeon I found Dr. Quiroz will perform a mini face lift. I've always had a double chin, even after losing weight it has not went away. I hate seeing myself in picture! Has anyone heard of this doctor or know anything of him. Thanks for any replies.

Tick tock, tick tock... I'm sitting here waiting for responses cause I'm excited about your mini lift. I agree with you - if they remove my band, they better remove some fat, too. Looking forward to meeting you soon. I want to say goodbye to your chin before it's gone.

Sorry, I don't know about Dr. Quiroz. But I did have a consultation with a doctor here because I don't like my hanging neck wattle. He suggested a neck lift. I wonder if it is the same thing as your mini face lift? Good luck!

Delarla, trust me it isn't anything cute you'll say goodbye to!

Yes he is doing a neck lift, I just call it in my own terms a mini face lift.

Gobble gobble. Hey, I can joke since I have a waddle too! I would LOVE to have it lifted, sliced, removed, dissolved - just get rid of it.

Why are you getting your band removed?

I'm getting my band removed because of erosion. :cry

I will be having a LBL with Dr Quiroz on JAn 26, 09. I know of a fellow bandtser who just had it doen with him last week. Great results and care I think you will be happy with the results. Let me know when you go and how it goes.

I had a consult with Dr Quiroz last month for a lower body lift and arm reduction. He has a very good reputation, and is highly recommended by my band surgeon. I don't have the money right now to get my LBL, but I think I will probably go to Dr Quiroz when I decide to do it.

Yeh I think that he will be a great choice and fit for me. I also will be staying at the aftercare he recommended for 4 nights. I will start a post once it gets closer I am still 3 months out. Let me know if you have any questions, that I may help you with.
